Grand Army of the
Frontier categories require a Victorian (1860-1902) or Expansion Era
(1903-1917) main battle rifle and handgun(s) to match.
Unlike SASS, GAF categories are based on the rifle you are shooting,
you will be expected to use handgun(s) of the same era. No
shotgun is used in any of these GAF categories and none will be used
in SCR matches, shotgun targets will not be engaged. GAF
shooters must wear something that approximates a military field
uniform of the era appropriate to your firearms and from a country
that issued those weapons. Military uniforms only include one
holster so shooters may use one handgun and reload it or two
handguns and stage the second pistol. Misses in GAF are 10
seconds and procedurals are 20 seconds. Gas checks will be
allowed on rifle bullets, other SCR bullet (lead or copper washed /
no copper jacketed) and velocity (1400 fps maximum) restrictions
continue to apply to GAF shooters. We will ask that shooters,
who are not members of the GAF, join GAF before shooting these
categories. It's free to join and we will have membership
applications available at Raider matches.

GAF rules allow
several categories but the Raiders will ONLY offer these Main Battle
Rifle/Pistol categories:

Please note: The GAF updated/simplified
their category system in July of 2017
The following Categories reflect those changes....

GAFB - GAF Military Rifle/Pistol, Black powder
